I consulted with Philip J. Gordon for an employment matter, and I found his legal expertise to be solid, particularly given his 30 years of experience and recognition in labor and employment law. He clearly understands the nuances of workplace disputes, which was evident in his initial assessment of my case. However, communication was occasionally inconsistent—I often had to follow up to get updates, and waits between responses were longer than I expected. While I appreciated his depth of knowledge, the case resolution took longer than anticipated, which added unnecessary stress. Overall, his competence was clear, but the process felt more drawn out than necessary.

Mr. Gordon handled my wrongful termination case with a solid understanding of Massachusetts employment law, which was evident from his approach. His 30 years of experience and recognition in employment litigation were clearly reflected in the strategy he employed. However, communication could have been more consistent—there were times when I felt left in the dark about case developments, and follow-ups often took longer than expected. While the outcome was fair, I had hoped for more proactive updates and a clearer timeline from the beginning. His expertise was undeniable, but the process felt somewhat impersonal at times. Overall, a competent attorney who delivered results, but not without some frustrations along the way.
